It's time of MVP awards, Time person of the year nominations yada yada...

So in forum, let's have a similar voting. Any one can nominate any one but your vote is limited to one choice on the scale of 3,2,1 ; that means your first choice is 3 points, second 2 and third 1. Plus you can't vote for yourself :) and you can nominate 3 only once; if you do it more than once, your second post is invalidated :) . You need to mention couple of sentences on your choices on why do you think the person deserves the nominations.

The person getting max. votes will get the 'person of the year on the forum' by the first week of December. As OP, I will help in counting the votes and declaring the winner, first runners up and second runners up : ). Only first 3 places will be announced on Dec 3.

I am not adding poll as people's choice might differ from the 8 or 10 I put up.

Plus RRK and Desi are excluded from your choices because they are obviously hidden heroes of the year, year after year and every year and not just for 2010 :)

Let the fun begin.

p.s. This is not another tribute to members thread. It is to acknowledge who made the max. impact to posters/members this year. That's why everyyear heroes like above are excluded. Past members like Bobus, Vinod, Rajesh, Mukerji along with Desi/RRK changed lives by their advices but this is not 'Dada Phalke' award for lifetime accomplishment :) Plus since I started the thread, don't be obligated at all to vote me or the ones I voted : ). Drop your inhibition hat and indicate your choices freely : )

I appreciate the initiative taken by RRS on this topic. Now it will be hard to resist doing the same next year and year after that.

Slight change in the process.

Dec-3: Finalize the list of nominees ( by RaReSha3)

Dec-3 : Setup a poll with these nominations for all members to vote ( by Admin Team)

Dec-3 to Dec 12: Voting ( by all registered members )

Dec-13: Announcement of Winners ( by Admin Team)

Dec-15: Finalize and forward the winners' details to Universal Relocations ( by Admin Team)

Nominees make sure your email id is up to date and you can receive email and PM from Admin.
Winners should send address, name, email id, phone number to RRK by PM. (Private Message ONLY)
After confirming the identity of winners, RRK will forward the information to Universal Relocations to send gifts.

---------------------------

1. Man: hilarious and yet insightful
2. Peter Griffin: one of the best posters
3. Maya: great writer.

My votes:
1. Rimjhim : You should be an inspirational coach. Your talents in multiple fields make us go awww but more than any one, you contributed a lot in making people serious about fitness
2. Maya1 : You should recognize that you have a special talent and seriously consider a full time writing career to give competition to Dave Barry alikes.
3. PG : Your sense of humor and one liners continue to put smile even on bad day. #2's suggestion applies to you too.

I am not considering Desi, if he is in the fray I dont think anyone comes near him for the top spot.

1) RJ and Maya----one is inspirational and other is equally brilliant :)
2) MV ---- cant imagine the forum without MV
3) PG, Boca ----- TNT founding fathers :)

If I cant nominate 2 then here is my revised list

1)Maya
2)RJ
3)MV

sorry PG, Boca, 2010 is the rise of Megantas in the forum....and hopefully next year will be the revenge of blue brigade ;)

laks0, you can't nominate 2 at the same time. :)

I would go with the following:

1.RRS - for giving up serious admin responsibilities and getting back to enjoying the forum.
2.My Roots - for the same, but after RRS. So, #2
3.Hyderabadi - for figuring out what the above two couldn't and be an admin without caring a damn for the seriousness of the job while taking couple of vacations to India. :)

1. Maya1
2. Maya1
3. Maya1

Jani - for giving us a meow by meow account of every cat fight going-on in Big Brother House.

Going_Nowhere - for his pearls of wisdom on South Indian ladies to Facebook to Diwali ki Mithaais and everything in-between.

XXXX - don't remember the name but the person who many moons ago predicted that US economy is going to collapse by Dec 2010 and everyone of us will have to pack up our bags and leave for des. 30 more days to go!!!
